Two Umps on the field and neither one sees what happened, especially with nobody on base. It makes you wonder what the field ump is day dreaming about. He's probably looking around for his next cooler to rob. LOL

*When the registration table is 10 miles from your field.

*Like Birdmoken said, when the playground is within sight but not within reach of the little ones...TORTURE!!!
*Porto-pots!!!! UGH!!!
*Packing up the cr@p.
*Your player says they have to go to the bathroom REALLY bad right in the middle of the game and the lines are a mile long.
*Head lice!!
*When you bring a cooler full of Mountain Dew to get you throught the day and the girls on the team find it and you have 2 left at 10 in the morning.
*Bad sunflower seeds.
*My youngest trying to warm-up with my team and wanting to play catch every second I am not coaching.
*When we finally get to the fields and my dd says "you did grab my cleats didn't you?"
*When I forget my lawn chair.
*Paying $15 for a weekend parking pass only to find that coaches get free passes.
*Umpires on the phone while on the field.....second time in 2 tournaments!! TURN OFF YOUR PHONES!!!!!!
*Crushing a team in 3 scrimmages and getting whipped by them in a game.

Every tournament that doesn't do like STINGRAYS and post the scores live on their web site. Come on, learn good marketing and get current with technology. Heck some don't even post scores at the end of the tournament. Those tourneys need to die away.

bracket updates without scores...seriously?
